Secret Passions, Private Flemish Collections at the Tripostal in Lille

by Lille (France).

MembersReviewsPopularityAverage ratingConversations
4None3,410,100NoneNone
The concentration of contemporary art collectors found in Belgium is unique. A small corner of Flanders around Kortrijk and not far from Lille boasts a few dozen collectors each more passionate than the last. The collections gathered in this tiny pocket of the planet are truly outstanding, but too few people have seen them. Sometimes with a background in textiles and long-term collectors, they have all caught the bug. Discrete, passionate and shrewd, they have worldwide reputations. Their collections speak to us of history and of their own lives while providing a wonderful insight into the art of the 70s to today. At the invitation of lille3000, these collectors are loaning over 130 works for an exhibition that follows in the dynamic of invitations extended to large collections (François Pinault Foundation, Saatchi Gallery, CNAP and Emmanuel Perrotin Gallery). Exhibition: Lille 3000, Euralille, France (10.10.2014-4.1.2015).… (more)
